OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- All of the team’s draft picks made the roster, a rarity for most NFL teams.

There were no major names to be cut Saturday, but the Ravens did waive several players who were expected to have some impact this season. Fourth-year linebacker Tavares Gooden had challenged Brendon Ayanbadejo for the top sub position at inside linebacker in passing situations, but apparently lost his battle to Ayanbadejo.

As a rookie, Gooden was expected to become the next Ray Lewis but never lived up to that potential. Gooden has been bothered by numerous injuries, especially concussions, throughout his career.

The Ravens also waived fourth-year defensive tackle Lamar Divens. A year ago, Divens was in the four-man rotation at defensive tackle, but he became expendable with the development of Terrence Cody and rookie defensive end Pernell McPhee.

McPhee has been excellent in rushing the passer throughout training camp.

… Rookie running back Anthony Allen and rookie receiver LaQuan Williams apparently have won out over veteran running back Jalen Parmele. Allen, who has replaced Parmele as the team's No. 3 running back, runs hard and fast—a north and south type running back.

With Parmele out, Williams could become the Ravens’ top punt or kickoff returner. Williams was a long shot to make the roster as a free agent from Maryland, but he has made big plays every week either as a receiver or on special teams.

With the roster all but set, the Ravens will work on finding another quarterback— either a No. 2 or No. 3. The Ravens also waived fifth-year linebacker Prescott Burgess, who has become one of the team's top special teams players.
